was written in reply. tto two letters on
the situation received from Gen Sher
man. -'
Caroxdelet, P. O., St. Louis. De
cembor 28. 1876. My Dear General :
Your favor of the 4th instant reached
me in New York on the '5th," the day
before I left for the West. I intend
ed to reply to it before leaving, but
cares incident to my departure inter
fered. Then, ag.al.ri, since my arrival
here I have been so occupied with perj
8onal affairs of a business nature that
I deferred writing , from day to day
until this moment, and now I find ray
self in debt to you another letler. 1 1
acknowledgement o( your favor of the
17th, received a fewdays since,",! have
concluded to leave here on the 29th
(to-morrow evening, so that I may be
expected in New
York on the 31st
inst. It has been cold and dreary
since my arrival here. I have worked
-like a Turk" (I presume that - 'means
hard work) in the couikrv in making
fences, cutting down trees repairing
buildings etc., and,am at least able to
say that St. Louis is the coldest place
in the winter and it is the hottest in
the summer 'of any that I have encoun
tered in the zone. T have knowti Si.
Louis in December to have gemal
weather throughout the month. This
December h s been frigid and the
river has been froze u more solid than
I bale ever known it. When 1 heard
the rumor that I Was ordered to the
Pacific coast I thought it probably true
considering the past discussion on that-
subject, the possibilities seemed to me
to point that way. Had it been true 1
should, of course, have presented uo
complaint nor made resistance of any
kind. I would have gone quickly, if
ut prepared to go promptly. I cer-
-Itainly would have been relieved from
the responsibility and anxieties eon-
cerqing the 'Presidential matters which
may fall to those near the throne, or
in our autho'.ity, within the next four
months, as well as from other incidents
or matters which I could not control
and action concerning which I might
approve. I waa not exAttiy prepared
to go to tirt Pacific, however, and. 1
tfferefore felt reliered when1 1 received
your note informing me that there was
eo truth in the tumors. Then I did
not wish id appear to be escaping from
any responsibilities; and the possible
dangers whfch may clnster around

not, under

special message of the J President in
the case of Louisiana some time he
fore. Rut in Sooth Carolina he had
the question settled by a decision of
the Supreme Court of the State the
highest tribunal which had acted on the
question so that his line of duty
seemed even to be clearer than in th
action in the Louisiana case. If the j
federal Court had interfered and
overruled t he decision of the State
Court, there might have been ajJoult
certainly but the Federal Court only
interfered to complicate, not to decide
or overrule Anyhow, it is no busi
ness' of the array to enter npon such
questions, and even If it might be so
in any event, if the civil authority is
supreme, as the constitution declares
it to be, the South Carolina case was
one which the army had a plain duty.
lad Gen, Ruger asked me for advice
and if I had given it. I should, of course
have notified you of my action imme
diately, so that it could hae been
promptly overrated if it should have
been deemed advisable by you or any
other superior in authority. Gen Ruger
did not ask for my advice,' ' and I in

did not desire it, or that

in time and
distatice than I was, be deemed it un
necessary. As Glen. Ruger had the
ultimate responsibility of action, and
had really Xhe greater danger to. con
front in the final action in the matter,
I did not venture to embarrass bin by
suggestions. ' He was a department

I knew that
rTaBhingtoti
he bad been called to
for
consu
tation before
taking eomtnand, and
was probably
aware of the views of the administra
tion to the civil affairs in his command
I. knew that he was in direct commnt
cation with my superiors in authority
in reference to the delicate subjects
presented for this consideration, or
had ideas of his own which he believed
to be sufficiently ia accord with the
views of our common superiors to en
able him to act intelligently accord
ing to bis judgment and without, sug
gestions frum'those not j on ' tbe spot
and not as folly acquainted wjth all the
facts as himself. He desired, too. to
be free to act, as be had eventual gj eat
er responsibility, and so tbe toatter
was governed as between him andoy
self. As I have been writing thus
freely to you. I may still- further un
bosom myself by stating that I have
not thought it lawful or wise to use
Federal troops in such matters as have
transpired east of the Mississippi with
in the last few mouths, save so far as
they may be brought into action un
der an article of the constitution which
contemplates meeting j armed resis
tance or ' invasion of a State more
powerful than the Stale authorities
can subdue by ordinary processes, and
Uieaonly when requested by the Leg-)
islature, or if it could not be convened

the President of the United Slates
intervenes in that manner it is stats
of war not peace. The army is la
boring under disadvantages, and has
beea used unlawfully t,t limes, in the
judgment of the people,! in mine cer ¬
tainly.) and we have lost a great deal
of kindly feeling which the community
at large once felt for us! It is time to
atop and unload. Officers in command
of troops often find it difficult to act
wisely and safely when their superiors
in authority have different vitwa of
the la W from theirs, and - when legis
lotvoo has sanctioned the action

A Had anil Ixiacly Plctwre.
On Sunday, July- 25th a couple of
pleasure seekers happened to be en
joying a drive near Shaiy Grove, iu
Caswell county. N. JJ. Without intent
they after driving around in various
directions, finally came upon the resit
dence of Mrs. Dejarnelte, the mother
of the nn fortunate girl whose pitiable
fate has caused so many hearts to
throb in sympathy atfits Tecital. One
of the gentlemen mentioned this fact
and tbey both looked with curiosity at
the surroundings. . . v
A sight of want' and poverty was
spread before them, and in what they
saw there was volumes of unwritten
woe, direful, distress and pinching
penury. The finger of decay had
marked everything, moss glinted on
the roof and door post, the shutters
had dropped from their places, and
were held in dishonored . array, by a
single nail Or screw ; fences" were gone,
weeds grew in rank profusion close
to the walls of the old home, nud
everything seemed, to tell in glaring
characters
poverty
ty had full sway, unmterrnpted
by a single bright ray ot sunshine from
the heavens of hope, or the shallowest
smiie from the fields of thrift. To
heighten the picture, there sat in the
doorway the figure of and aged woman
pOotly clad, her naked feet' resting 'on
tlie door step, aud her form "bent with
age. It-is the mother ' of TUoroas and
Mary Dcjarrieitc. Near by, clothed in
deep mourning, her bead resting iu
her hands, 9 Annie Pejarnette, the
youngest and only . surviving daughter
of th's once prood and happy family. ,
Her early life has had a heavy tl Lai
and now in this lone and dismal bouse,
where only these two are left, where
the heart-rending recolleetioos of the
past come in, uitbiddan tho tuej be,
this young girl sits and broods ovar
her great sorrow, and looks out upon a
life that is blank! ; ' 5 ;
Is not the picture a pitiful one?- Can
not something be uone for Ibis yonng
and pure girl, it order to save her from
a situation so full of. heavy- burden
and so hope9S in its. premonitions.
Ishe lives, and Can be helped. Let
